Please read more about Alchemy's music below:

Alchemy brings together three dynamic players steeped in traditional ECD and contra dance music: Rachel Bell (piano accordion), Karen Axelrod, (piano, piano accordion) and Eric Martin (violin, viola, voice, foot percussion). Alchemy plays high- energy Celtic reels, breathtakingly beautiful waltzes, gritty French groove tunes, elegant English country dance melodies from the 1700’s, and exciting originals. The music occupies a beautiful space, somewhere between chamber music and folk music, with complex textures and rich arrangements alongside the raw energy of multi-cultural influences. Individually, they have performed across the United States, Canada, and Europe. As a trio, their improvisatory style brings a contemporary and innovative feel to both traditional and newly composed tunes and songs.  Alchemy delights the listener with heartfelt performances with a touch of whimsy.
